OFC Creations Theatre Center is thrilled to announce that Garrett Clayton, well known for playing ‘Link’ in NBC’s HAIRSPRAY LIVE!, as well as one of the leads in Disney TEEN BEACH MOVIE FRANCHISE, has been added to top billing for the October regional production of The Rocky Horror Show. Clayton will make his upstate New York and Rochester Debut at OFC Theatre for the October 12- 31 run, playing the iconic character of Frank N Furter. This interactive production will allow both audiences and actors to experience this cult classic favorite in a uniquely new and different way.
Clayton, alongside a host of local Rochester actors, will be directed by OFC Executive Director Eric Vaughn Johnson in an immersive experience held at the OFC’s The Old Farm Café. Audience members will be seated at tables (by reserved seating) as the production takes place throughout the entire venue—between tables, behind the audience, and on OFC’s gazebo stage, and eventually traveling next door to the main OFC Theatre to experience ‘The Floor Show’ and the conclusion of this epic audience favorite.
Rocky Horror is part of the Broadway in Brighton Series, comprised of six musical productions under the direction of Johnson. Clayton is just one of several equity and professional actors who will be featured this season. As part of the new series, OFC Creations is becoming one of the few theaters in the nation to employ a full-time professional Resident Acting Company. For the 2023-2024 series, OFC has hired Eric Schutt as the first member. Schutt will play Brad in Rocky Horror, alongside his wife Courtney (OFC’s Operational Manager, and Magenta in the cast). Both are also instructors to several youth and teen productions held at OFC.
This “Family” theme is an intrinsic value and environment created at OFC. OFC Creations is known for their welcoming and nurturing environment and is home to LGBTQ+ programming and artists.. It employs are 50 staff members, 10 of which are full-time, and has the largest theatre summer camp program in NYS. Created by Johnson in 2005, it is co-owned by Johnson and his husband Hunter Ekberg, who serves as Director of Theatrical Experiences.
